Good call. I'll ask around, I'm sure we can do something here. Dreamhost
has free 30 days trial for their cloud but in any case I'll ask around
for vouchers.

What sort of 'flavor' would be needed? 4 processors and 8GB minimum?

There is an identical set in google spreadsheet form that's more
manageable for that sort of searches:

https://docs.google.com/a/openstack.org/spreadsheets/d/1HSmqjeG17UOfmVxoEPt9q1UEtLm8Y8QGXAzqQGePblM/edit?usp=sharing

It's available only to people who request access (you should have access
to it already).

I was also reminded that people may not have the skills yet to pick a
bug for themselves so assigning one to them would also work. I added a
line to the email:

I contracted a company that rents Lego sets in Canada. They'll going to
send us the sets already built and spare parts on Friday afternoon to
the convention center. Hopefully it'll all work out.
